We're from Gamedev Club at UW, and we meet 4PM Thursdays in CSE 503.
We're interested in video games and indie video game development -
namely, participating in contests and gamejams (last quarter we had
several teams enter in the Cyberpunk Gamejam (http://punkcyb.org)).
Sound like your kind of deal, but no experience? No problem!
We
hold regular workshops teaching how to use popular game libraries, in
addition to having regular guest speakers from people involved in the
local game industry.
